Lie Down in the Darkness, Rise up from the Ash

I don't really know what decisive event brought Gimli and Legolas together in the original tale. That a mutual sense of divorce from the others (there being four hobbits and two Men, but only one Elf, and only one Dwarf) should compel a measure of sympathy for one another makes sense. It is interesting in this story that, whereas till now they have used Boromir to serve as a physical barricade between them (a funny detail, by the way), it is now concern about him that draws them both together.
